Stefan Brandl, Chairman of the Board of Directors of ebm-papst Group, said: “During the last fiscal year, we managed to strengthen our leading position, create plenty of new jobs and post the highest revenues in the history of ebm-papst. With record investments in Germany and abroad, we are generating the capacity that will allow the group to remain on its course of healthy growth.”
“We are successful now, and we have implemented the ‘one ebm-papst’ strategy to keep our corporation fit for the future. We want to become faster and more agile, and develop into a more flexible organization.
“Growing together as a group is key, but we still want to retain the level of decentralization supporting our success.”
For the current fiscal year, the ebm-papst group plans a moderate growth in revenue of 3.1% to €1.960 billion. The technology leader will allocate around €112 million (+6.5%) to research and development in order to expand its aerodynamics/acoustics, digitalization and drive technology competence. In the course of this, ebm-papst is also pushing the establishment and expansion of startups.
